You need to make a major change in your life. Do you make it all at once, cold turkey style, or incrementally?
I could never do something cold turkey. I would have to do it in stages. I know doing it in those stages would be difficult, probably seeming downright impossible sometimes, but I know it would work. I don’t have the willpower to make the change there and then, I would cave in. I know that by doing it in stages, I would be able to do a day, miss a day, do a day, miss a day, do a weekend, miss a day etc until the change was made.

I have to do it all at once. If I slip it’s okay but I go right back. Years ago when cigarettes were about $3 when I would try and quit I sometimes brought a pack smoke one save one and throw the rest away. Of course I would always wish I didn’t.
I wouldn’t be able to do that. Knowing there was one there, I would have to smoke it first lol
🙂
Ah yes i know this feeling …perhaps because i have too much won’t power 🙂
Love it 😆
Lol lol

Getting slung out by your partner and living in your car for four months is very difficult to do in stages. I had to do this about 4 years ago. It’s a bit of a one stop shop. 😦
Yeeek. Yeah, I slung my ex-wife out. I told her she could find somewhere to live and then move out, but when she said she was meeting up with her new bloke, I told her that she wasn’t coming back to the house

Hmmm…I guess it depends on what the change is, how much control you have & how much you really want it. Some changes I’ve done cold turkey (BTW – I’m not a fan of turkey – LOL) & others I’ve done gradually. Some willingly – some not so willingly – just had no choice in the matter.
Yeah, sometimes those “no choice” changes really suck

I’m the opposite. I have to do it cold turkey or it won’t happen.
I don’t have the willpower. When I gave up smoking, I had to use aids to give up – patches and gum.
